Good Afternoon all. First off, I consider myself rather tech savy on the hardware side of things (computers) but after all I've been reading I feel like a complete and total noob. When it comes to SW and ROMs I am absolutely clueless! Not good coming from a cell phone technician, eh? *cough cough*
I seem to be having a lot of issues locating an up to date guide and a mature ROM to upgrade from my stock 2.1 to 2.2.
I have an HTC Desire from US Cellular (CDMA), HBOOT .98 that I rooted last night. HTC has not released a suitable 2.2 update for USCC so I'm stuck using 2.1 or a custom rom. Could someone please provide some information for me or point me in the right direction of an up to date guide and ROM for this phone?

There are no CDMA roms for the Desire, it is a freak of nature phone that is probably going to be stuck where it is at, unless US Cellular puts Froyo out!!!! There are at least two if not more threads on here about US Cellular!!!! All of the stock Ruu's on here are for GSM phones!!!!

It looks like most US Desire phones are with the CDMA regional carriers. So who knows what resources will be put into getting froyo out. I figure once it's out on one carrier the rest will follow, but getting that first carrier to do it is the hard part.

there are roms for the htc desire bravoc aka cdma version cyanogen makes the best ones and he has released a very stable version of froyo for cdma htc desire. most of his betas are more are more than stable enough to use as daily drivers and i have used his roms for years when i was on t-mobile and a g1 that currently is running froyo/ gingerbread!!
